It sounded like you thought you would lose your loyalty point if you drew. you do not, once you get that point along with a hunter safety point you will always start over with 2 points after getting drawn.
I had this guy try to run me over while I was watching another ram trying to determine if it was a shooter or not. the binos pic just takes me back there.
I have not heard that there was a feral sheep problem. I would just be cautious, if your looking at "feral sheep" around the deshutes they may actually belong on the reservation and could get you into trouble.
